The 0.11b version works for me with the additional "double reset" patch
(attached).

It's not perfect, it sometimes hangs and prints endless stuff like:

Jul 15 13:39:29 tnuctip kernel: eth0: Error -110 writing packet to BAP
Jul 15 13:39:29 tnuctip kernel: eth0: Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP
Jul 15 13:40:00 tnuctip last message repeated 8140 times
Jul 15 13:41:01 tnuctip last message repeated 17195 times
Jul 15 13:41:06 tnuctip last message repeated 1552 times

but overall it makes the card work, so I'm almost happy.

good luck,
